What other weird stuff do "born again" Christians believe?
And no, the idea of being "born again" is not new. It's in the Bible. Jesus talks about it in John 3.

You do realize that they don't actually mean that they were born again? Born-again is just a term that means that they came back to Christianity after abandoning it. They forget the way they used to live and believe that their past sins are forgiven as if they were sinless babies again. It's metaphor.

Salvation isn't something you " sense" in case you have confidence in Jesus because of the fact the Son of God and your Savior , then not something the devil can do can take your salvation faraway from you. Thomas the Doubter refused to have confidence until eventually he had touched the Risen Christ. He suffered no punishment for his doubts and neither will you. The Lord is familiar with that " the spirit is prepared however the flesh is vulnerable" in case you have taken Christ as your Savior, you're his for all Eternity and not something can pry you from his Hand. in case you fairly want to " do stuff for God" start up off small and artwork your way as much as the massive stuff. i began out by employing taking all my pennies, nickels and dimes and dropping them in a jar, then whilst it grew to become into finished, choosing the charity i grew to become into going to donate it to. so a techniques i've got helped to construct a school in India and assisted in the digging of three wells in Africa with my little jar. each and every little bit facilitates.

Sorry I've been harassed by "Born Agains" for well over 20 years.
& some of them were repeat offenders. You'd think ther's only so many times you could be "Born Again"

Check out John 3 - that is where Jesus talks about being born again:
http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John%203;&version=31;
The idea is that we are seperated from God - we are spiritually dead inside. But God has provided a way for us to be "born again" and to enter in to a relationship with God by faith through the work of the Holy Spirit.

it's been around since the times of the romans.
if a person is truly "Born Again", that means he or she had gotten "right with God".
unfortunately, many people profess to being born again and it's mostly just some kind of scam they're running.
Satan is active and Hell is no place to want to spend eternity!

Satan is having a field day on these soft minded people.
If they read the bible they would know that their beliefs are completely wrong., and that God DOESN'T use healing powers or gifts of tongues.
This is power from Satan.

Leave them to their own devices,if they want to believe in
Fairytales who are you to help them,if it were me i would tell
them to take a long walk off a short pier,all religions are just a front ? to see which of you are complete wacko's,and which one's of you can see through what they are trying to pull over your eye's.If you want to follow then be a sheep?
If you want to lead,then do that and tell the Bible bashers to
find another patsy,as you have woken up !

Listen to your self, are you proud of what you have become on your own? Just read your own question, If this is what 'evolves' what will you people be like in another 100 years.

Not new, but seems to be new to you. Dig into the Bible and find out for yourself. It's the best thing around.
